Ingredients
Scale
8 large leaves curly kale, stemmed and torn into large pieces
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
Pinch cayenne pepper, if desired
Instructions
Heat oven to 300°F. In a large bowl, massage the kale leaves and olive oil gently to thoroughly coat the kale. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to combine.
Spread the kale in a single layer on a large baking sheet, being sure not to overcrowd the kale.
Bake 10 minutes, rotate the pan, and bake for an additional 12 to 15 minutes or until the kale looks shrunken and slightly crispy. Remove from the oven and cool on the pan at least 5 minutes. The kale will crispy up as it cools. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
Notes
Need to crisp them up again? Pop them back in the oven at 300°F for about 5 minutes.
